You snip off a long trailing vine of pothos, and propagate it in water. It roots within weeks, begging for soil. Now what?
Basket weave it! After planting the rooted end, lay the vine along the top of the basket so each node is touching the soil. Mist regularly, and as each node sends its own roots, that particular vine will grow heartier and more sturdy, and send out bigger and bigger leaves.
This is why I like to “basket weave” them in a circle, so I can cover as much of the surface area of the pot as possible. Pothos will do this wonderful bit of magic, where it arranges all of its leaves in such a way that they all get maximum exposure to sunlight. Its quite beautiful, how it fans out in a circle:
